Thoughtfully designed mountain home with wide views over Rico and the San Juans. The floorplan is straightforward and flexible: use it as a primary residence, second home, or pursue short-term rental income (buyer to verify town STR rules). A lower-level bedroom with a full bath can be locked off for guests, a caretaker, or rental. The main level has a vaulted great room with a wood stove and large windows that frame town-and-mountain sightlines. The kitchen is built to work: stainless appliances including a Six burner range/oven, roughly 17 feet of concrete counter, bar seating, and direct access to a patio for grilling and cool evening air. The primary suite is on the main living level for no-stairs convenience. Full bath with soaking tub and oversized shower, plus a walk-in closet sized for real storage. An upstairs loft offers a second living area--media, office, or play space. A guest suite on this floor has its own bath, sitting room, and access to a rear deck. The lower level offers a lock off/ non-confirming third bedroom with adjacent full bath; could be configured as a private guest room, rental, or caretaker's residence. The wooded setting with mountain exposure and a seasonal spring on the property. The location is the value add: real small-town services and trail/river access, with Telluride's lifts, festivals, and dining about 45 minutes up CO-145. Regional airports at Montrose and Cortez expand travel options; high-speed internet supports remote work.
